On counting women

When the LDS Church announced the addition of a woman to three of its high-level committees, most of us thought, “it’s about time!” And most of us shrugged. (This post from Jana Riess nails the reaction, so I won’t waste time here.)

I was intrigued by one aspect of the story, as reported by Peggy Fletcher Stack at Salt Lake Tribune: The Church spokesperson seemed to dodge a question about how many women served on leadership committees. Her phrasing made me think of Tobias Fünke, the never-nude from Arrested Development. So I made this.
